Contributed by Fr Mund Cargill Thompson on Dec 24, 2017

A sermon about taking Jesus to the party, and why God loves you enough to be born as a baby

One little known fact about Father Christmas - and I am not making this up - is that in the year 325AD he punched someone in the face. I am sure he was very sorry about it afterwards.

A Steadfast Faith Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

It is easy to start the race, but the finish is what really matters, and so it is in the Christian life. It is one thing to start on the way, and another thing to keep going all the way. What we really need is not starting power but staying power,
